Pizza and beer by the beach- Pizza Port, San Clemente, CA

The kids wanted pizza, and of course we wouldn't mind a beer, so we took a chance on a place recommended by my husband's friend:  Pizza Port.  We knew nothing about the place except that it served gourmet pizza and had its own brewery.  I thought it was a sit down restaurant, but was pleasantly surprised to find that it was an order at the counter, find your own seat type of place.  It is a super cute place!   The tables are picnic style, with the bar on one side and the picnic tables and counter on the other.  There is also seating out on the patio and upstairs.

Their list of beers is impressive, offering Pizza Port original brews and local favorites.  

We were delighted to see a lunch special that included a slice of pizza, salad and a drink.   Plus you could upgrade to a beer!   We were able to substitute a second slice for one of the salads which worked great for us!   You had a choice of pepperoni, cheese or the special of the day.   The day we went it was broccoli, chicken!  That is, of course, what I chose. Yummy!

And the salad that came with ithe meal was huge and  incredibly fresh!   

 

This place is so awesome!   I tried to talk everyone into going back the next night for dinner!   It is the perfect place for a family meal, dinner and drinks with friends, drinks and late night snack with friends or just drinks.  They have take out as well!   I was a happy girl after my meal at Pizza Port.  If you are in San Clemente, make a stop here, you will be very happy too!
